'Making Of' DVD's

I recently watched a special on VH-1 that showed Fleetwood Mac recording their recent album. I also loved other DVD's like Aerosmith's Making of Pump and the Warren Zevon disc. Are there any other DVD's out there that show someone creating an album?

I have all the Classic Album DVD's already (Pink Floyd, Elton John, Phil Collins, etc...)

Is that VH-1 Fleetwood Mac documentary on DVD? Is the Metallica video from about 10 years ago on DVD?

Thanks everyone.

 

Mac's making of is called The Chain. It just came out.
The Metallica "1 year and a half" came out last year.

 

Oh yeah and Sting has a making of of his crappy latest album Sacred Love
I just vomited in my mouth thinking about that album.

 

There's a whole section of Ozzy making his No More Tears album on the Don't Blame comp.
His last greatest studio album.

 

Is that the making of the "Black" album?

 

Shawn, Thank you, I love Fleetwood, I will latch on to this.

 

Yup...here...

I'm wrong. It's not out on DVD. I confused it w/ 2 other DVD's. I could've sworn there was a PBS special but maybe not. The Limited Edition Say You Will CD has some in-studio footage.

Don't get that Unbroken Chain set I told you about. It's one of those chinsy documentries not authorized by the band.

 

Thanks Shawn.

 

Steely Dan - The Making Of Aja

The Band - The Making Of The Band

both

 

It's not out yet, but the making of documentary, Destiny Rules, will be released on September 14.

 

That's it! Thanks.

Jaime look for this...

 

Jaime do you have the Classic albums for Judas Priest, Metallica, Deep Purple, & Def Leppard?

 

I've rented or own the whole Classic Albums series. I love the creative process even if I don't particularly care for the music.

 

Is that the right one?

Thanks Jay and Shawn and John.

 

Jamie,

There's a Stevie Wonder DVD about the making of Songs In The Key Of LIfe. Some footage, but also a reunion of some of the original cats redoing some stuff in the studio for this disc.

 

Ooh, that's sound interesting. Have you seen it?

 

Yes, but not recently. If I remember the emphasis was on the reunion, but it went into some detail of the actual sessions. The reunion was pretty cool. Those cats could really play. You'll probably like watching that. I did.

My first time in a real LA studio, was Crystal while they were working on that one. My bandmate friend from college moved up from San Diego and got a job there making coffee. I went and hung out with him one night, and didn't see much action, but did met Stevie. I particularly liked the board there, which had a bunch of MAP 1731 discreet opamps in it. The studio I was working at in San Diego at the time, had an old Electrodyne with MAP's in it, but it was nothing like their wonderful sounding board.

 

Yes,that was one of the best!

 

The Stevie one is amazing. One of the best if not the best of the series IMHO. Highly recommended. The Steely Dan one and Phil Collins are my next faves, followed by Elton John. The rest are OK, not great. The Paul Simon one infuriated me.

 

Thanks. Tower had it for $15.

They're silly and immature guys and I get tired of the hard hitting attitudes real quickly but getting to watch Bob Rock was a pleasure. He is a no **** kind of guy and that cut through all the guys' goofiness.

 

The first pressings of Amy Grant's "Legacy...Hymns and Faith" CD do include a Making Of... DVD.

 

Jamie,

I didn't' mention this before because it's not really a 'making of' dvd, but IMHO, the Motown film, 'Standing In the Shadows of Motown' is superb. It also has a very good reunion band, but mostly I fine the documentary part to be amazing. There are, unfortunately, some recreated parts to this film, and I usually skip through them, but they are brief. The soundtrack disc to this one, particularly the Deluxe Edition, is a great insight as well.

Then again, I loved the Tom Dowd film, which you apparently did not.
